Quips, queries, and querulous quibbles from the quirky mind of Don Kahle

Why do people say 'after dark' when what they mean is 'during dark'? After dark would be when it's light again, right? * There are 10 types of people in this world -- those who read binary, and those who don't. * I'm rethinking the whole brown rice thing. What if it's just more white liberal self-hatred? Whole wheat, honey, unbleached flour. All better. Sez who? * Eugene should be HQ for White People for Diversity. We'll fight for diversity to be included in books, which is where we know to look for it. * Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day, but give a man a pillow, and he'll dream of steak. * What can you say about a state that puts the town of North Bend 225 miles southwest of Bend? We rely on visitors for entertainment.

Ever since Arr-Gee reporter Diane Dietz described me as a “gadfly,” I’ve been more than careful about not complaining about matters for which I have no solutions. Downtown development is no different. But last week I had to sort of leave readers hanging, because I offered a hint of a solution — revive the Eugene Development Commission, disbanded in 1982 — but I couldn’t give the full picture of a solution that I think the left and the right could both embrace. That’s what I intend to do this week, so I won’t be offering three other options. I feel obligated to finish the story I started last week. (And I’m grateful to my editor at The Register-Guard for allowing this slight departure from protocol, such as it is.)
